    This workshop-style session will guide you through the process of accessing payer-negotiated rate data and learning how to craft that information into a meaningful “ask” to the payer. Bring your laptop and leave with a draft of a data-driven business case to leverage in your next payer contract negotiation.

    Learning Objectives:

    1. Access TiC payer-negotiated rate data through MGMA Rates
    2. Benchmark your practice rates against other similar providers in your geographic region
    3. Create an initial data-driven analysis for your practice to prepare for contract negotiations
